Nurse bullying

Published

Hello, I have been a nurse since 2006, worked in home health, and nursing homes. In April I finally got a job at the hospital here in the wound care clinic working for awesome doctors. I was trained by an LPN I took her place since she was retiring to partime. She did great job showing me the ropes. Then a RN retired after 34 years, so it was me and my supervisor. We worked together for two weeks, she said I did awesome. Therefore, I had two great evaluations. Then She hired two new RNs. Both I knew since I worked with both before. The one RN was trained by the LPN that trained me. Things went fine till just recently. One of the new RNs my supervisor put in charge when the supervisor is not there. She did awesome, I had no difficulty listening to her. Then this week

was horrible with her. There used to be so much teamwork, now she helps the other RN but not me. Which I was told we were to help each other. The. Friday was the worst for me. The two RNs decided to take bunches patients back to rooms. Leave them sit in there and start with the first ones. Yet they left people In rooms that just sat there. I took a patient from lobby that was waiting and started taking care of him. After Dr saw him I got supplies to do his wound care. As I was out in hallway. The other RN and my supervisor was out there. I was told I needed to hurry up.! I said I was going as I could. My supervisor said she understood but thought they were getting behind because Kne Dr is really slow getting back there. So I took it and went on. Then as I was waiting on Dr Then the RN came in I told her I was waiting on doctor I was going to lady next door that had burns. The RN said she knew how to do her and I was supposed to get someone else. Despite the fact that she ones waiting and no one had been in to see her. So I went and took care of her anyway. OF course, she went and told supervisor that I was not being a team player. My supervisor never said nothing to me. I continued to take patients till time was done. I just don't know what has changed on her. I worked with her on other jobs and never had no problems with her. Please advise me. I haven't went to supervisor yet, just don't like to rock boat.
